Cameroon have banned captain Samuel Eto’o for 15 matches after the forward incited his team mates to refuse to travel to Algeria for a friendly international last month, the FA said.
Vice-captain Eyong Enoh Takang was also handed a two-match suspension for a similar breach of discipline, the FA said in a statement on its official website (www.fecafootonline.com).
The players have 10-14 days to appeal.
Vice-captain Enoh Eyong received a two-match ban, while Tottenham's Benoit Assou-Ekotto was fined $1,980.
As it stands, Eto'o will miss the Indomitable Lions' opening games in qualifying for both the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations and 2014 World Cup.
Cameroon begin their campaign for the 2013 Nations Cup finals in South Africa with the first leg of their first round tie in Guinea Bissau on 29 February. The second leg will be played on 17 June.
In between the Nations Cup games the Cameroon squad start their quest to reach the 2014 World Cup Finals in Brazil with a match on 1 June against DR Congo.
Cameroon are in qualifying Group I with DR Congo, Libya and Togo.
